This new OSHA 30-hour maritime outreach course specific to marine terminal operations builds upon the new OSHA 10-hour Outreach Training Program by adding additional topics relevant to marine terminal operation (and all related equipment). This course includes topics like specialized marine terminal operations “roll on/roll off,” railroad facilities/operations at the marine terminal, safe slinging (using land-based cargo handling gear), proper stacking; and includes advanced PIT/forklift training (including various forklift attachments unique to marine terminals).
